Ya, hearing they are from the Midlands but only rumours so far. Was at a gradual bend in the road that would catch you out if you werent familiar with it.
Got a fright when I heard about it earlier as the wife would have been travelling that road at the time, but seems like she passed not long before it happened.

Do you know Seanie Shaughnessys cottage?
I don’t think so. Is that near braddishs place on the left heading towards askeaton from town?
It’s the cottage on the right after Wallaces Cross as you head towards askeaton.
There’s a deceptive drag on the bend there along by the high stone wall.

It would be ya. Been plenty of accidents there over the years but don’t remember any fatal ones.
That road is treacherous, RIP.

A lad fell asleep on the Askeaton bypass this morning and ploughed into a local man on his way to work.
Haven’t heard much on that one so took it that it wasn’t too serious?
